Blood Flow Restriction Therapy

Blood Flow Restriction Therapy (BFR)

BFR is a great tool to help regain strength when pain or surgical protocols restrict the ability to complete standard strength training. BFR creates a deprivation of oxygen to the muscles, which causes a build-up of lactate that creates similar effects as a heavy workout. This creates temporary muscle damage that then results in muscle hypertrophy/growth -much like performing a heavy workout would!
